Description:"01/27/1960: A bomb, probably comprising only one stick of dynamite, a watch timer, and an electric detonator, was planted by the door leading to the coal storage room of the RCMP's Nelson office. It exploded at 2:45 a.m., blowing out five of the building's windows and tearing off the door to the storage room. The office was unoccupied at the time, and no damage was done to the interior of the building. This was reported to be the first Sons of Freedom (SOF) action directed at a police target since 1924. A SOF man was sentenced to ten years for possessing explosives without lawful excuse in relation to the bombing, and his partner was sentenced to six years and four years for illegal possession of dynamite."
